Directions

The recipe is so fabulously easy. Once you dredge mozzarella sticks in flour, eggs then bread crumbs, all they need is 4 to 5 minutes in the waffle iron. In comparison, baked mozz sticks take about 20 minutes in the oven. Fried, they cook quickly, but you need to deal with hassle and pain of frying. And don’t even get me started about frozen then microwaved mozzarella sticks. You just don’t want those.

Don’t worry if you don’t have a square waffle iron. A circular one works just as well! We tested the waffles using both kinds. Also don’t pay too close of attention to my instructions for how many mozzarella sticks to put in the iron at once. Just add as many that will fit.
